Sanity is Optional Posted May 31, 2018 Posted May 31, 2018 The only reason I can think of for a re-issue is to get people who skipped it the first time around. I'm on the fence if I want one or not, on the one hand I don't have a VF-31F yet, on the other hand there's a reason I skipped it the first time around. Quote

Mac Posted June 1, 2018 Posted June 1, 2018 (edited) Is there difference in the one releasing tonight? Talking about the vf-31F Edited June 1, 2018 by Mac Quote

jenius Posted June 1, 2018 Posted June 1, 2018 So dumb, those things should just be in the drakens bundle. Bad Bandai Quote
spacemanoeuvres Posted June 1, 2018 Posted June 1, 2018 I thought the wings were different? Was that just an early mistranslation? Quote
spacemanoeuvres Posted June 1, 2018 Posted June 1, 2018 (edited) It does seem like an odd release. I guess they’re just trying to capitalize on the movies. Would be more enthused about 31A super parts or the 31E. Or, duh, they could have released the 31S armor parts from the movie. Edited June 1, 2018 by spacemanoeuvres wrods Quote
no3Ljm Posted June 1, 2018 Posted June 1, 2018 Or they could just go for Chuck's ride first just to finish the whole squad, right? Quote

Well actually those lil drakens will be kinda free since the original Messer release had the same MSRP of this new Messer, this youtube video this time around fits perfectly I think Quote

They will be release as a TWE in the future you will only get the extra attachment clips and the Hayate pilot for this release. Quote

Good for those who missed out on the 31F, however 31F can be still found and bought (like SRSLY Bandai??) Quote

Good for those who missed out on the 31F, however 31F can be still found and bought (like SRSLY Bandai??) True but the cheapest I've been able to find is $299 plus. With this re-release, I can snag one for less than $200. Quote
Zx31 Posted June 1, 2018 Posted June 1, 2018 It is a re-release that isn't for me, and that's okay. Hopefully makes it easier for people that do want it to get an order for one. Quote
Tallman Posted June 1, 2018 Posted June 1, 2018 I have 2 already, I don't need the 3rd one if it is only for 2 clips and Hayate. Hope others can get Messer this time. Quote

So... what is the sales pitch for this one? Y21000. Aside from the regular original content, it will have extra helmetless Hayate figure and 2 wing clips for both Fighter/Gerwalk and Battroid modes for the Lil Draken in which it will get re-released as a stand-alone set from Tamashii Web Shop.

Sandman Posted June 1, 2018 Posted June 1, 2018 So is this preorder 11 pm PST or Midnight? Not sure if I need this but I'll probably get one because I'm a sucker. Quote
davidwhangchoi Posted June 1, 2018 Posted June 1, 2018 so, how does the wings fold down for the drakken? Quote

Heron Posted June 1, 2018 Posted June 1, 2018 You guys with the 2 or 3 already can pas son this one to let us without one have a chance. Quote
Chronocidal Posted June 1, 2018 Posted June 1, 2018 16 minutes ago, davidwhangchoi said: so, how does the wings fold down for the drakken? The bracket basically locks into the underside hardpoint on the outer wing section, wraps around the wing and provides a different hardpoint on top of the wing, and then braces the outer portion against the underside of the inner section of the wing so it won't fold all the way down. I have a sneaking suspicion it won't actually prevent the wings from folding up straight, but the drones will collide with the tails unless you fold them inward. Quote
seti88 Posted June 1, 2018 Posted June 1, 2018 Huh...so PO reverted back to 4pm Tokyo time from the time on hobby search's page... Quote
Heron Posted June 1, 2018 Posted June 1, 2018 Is Hobby Search PreOrder monies up front or upon shipping? Quote
